Sure. Let's start with the ones Dolt 45 is appointing.

He's more the old kind. He looks like John C Calhoun.

30 days? We've already been down this road... Its been the practice for 3 years that children of people detained at the boarder cannot be held for more than 20 days. So, whats the point of this? Detain families all together? Already been down that road too...

Imagine the horror of the supreme court overruling some Judge in San Diego when the 9th Circuit just ruled on this 3 years ago. https://cdn.ca9.uscourts.go...

"Judge Orders Release of Immigrant Children Detained by U.S."

https://www.nytimes.com/201...

These kids are in a bad position no fault of their own. They are no doubt being used as political pawns.

1997 - Flores v. Loretta Lynch says kids detained at the boarder must be released "without unnecessary delay". If they cannot be immediately placed (with family) they must be held in the least restrictive setting appropriate for their age.

2015 - The 9th Circuit rules Flores applies not only to unaccompanied kids but also to kids detained while accompanied with their parents. Obama court order (Case No. CV 85-4544-DMG ORDER IMPLEMENTING REMEDIES PURSUANT TO THE COURT’S JULY 24, 2015 ORDER) established kids be held no more than 20 days.

He somehow misses the fact Democrats are defending actual Confederate statues, and Republicans are taking them down.

Oh wait.....

Bernie came out in favour of S. Huckabee-Sander's right to eat in restaurants in peace.

I was on his side in the primaries, but dude has now jumped the shark. We need a THIRD option - challenging Hillz-ish neoliberal centrism but also not jumping into Bernie-style attempts to appeal to "economically anxious" Trumpists rather than fighting them. You should be able to be a socialist AND stand up for reproductive rights, trans people, PoC, migrants, Muslims etc etc etc. The "either/or" struggle is killing the US center-left.
